I planted the oca and it's up already. Someone told me it would be fine if I planted it out but I'm going to leave it a little longer first.

Cambourne tricksy clue, still trying to work it out  ;D But wonder if it is Nilly?

Oca and Tiger nuts both very late but I thought it worth a chance, so go for it. T. nuts may keep until next year, oca plant. Both are quite quick to get started, oca is daylight sensitive so planting early is not necessarily  an advantage. T.nuts produce in the autumn and if you can give a bit of protection from frost may do well, keep them well watered though.

Where is she, I don't think she has twigged on yet, so it might still catch her unawares..

Not many to go now.

As  one of my granddaughters would say at times of great excitement, OMG.
 Is it me, is it REALLY me? I can't believe it, when was it posted please? Seeing daughter tomorrow whose plot we are doing & it would be lovely to open it with her to show her what A4A seed swaps are all about.

Well its going to the post office tomorrow sorry for the delay but harriets not been very well today and i have only just got the power of hearing back. Looks like shes about to have a couple of teeth break though (they have been visible under the gum for the last 2 weeks but now we have little white dots above then appearing) and as been in agony last night and today. I will PM you the tracking information tomorrow a neighbor is going to pop it down to the post office for me :)

Poor Harriet, bless her. It's so difficult when they're teething, so painful for them & not a lot of help we can give.
Cam, the parcel sounds & looks amazing. Should I put my name down for another plot or maybe a field ;D ;D ;D.

Feel for little Harriet Cam, teeth are a pain coming and the same going! (I've got two wobblies :'().

Hubby still uses Old Spice and I looked at the label for clues - no way did I get that one!

Grannyjanny we expect pictures of the event now  ;)
